What is the sale price of a kite originally priced at $24 Sale! 25% OFF of the original price!

 

25% of $24 is

 

25/100  *  24 = $6

and

$24 - $6= $18

Set up an expression:

 

If it is 25% off,  we know we are going to subtract something from the original.

 

To find the 25% off the original price,  you would multiply the original price by 0.25,  25% in decimal form.

 

So our expression should look like this:  24-(24*0.25)

 

Now use the order of operations.  Solve inside of parentheses first.

 

24 * 0.25 = 6

 

Now subtract.

 

24 - 6 = 18

 

The kite costs $18 when on sale.

 

I hope this helps! @-Happy7
